PLAN B Natural Health
How it all started
Homeopathy found me
From the youngest of ages, I was interested in natural health. My first experience of Homeopathy came in my teens, thanks to my forward thinking Mum. She took me to a Homeopath for a stubborn case of impetigo. Nothing I'd been given by the doctor had worked and was told, '... you'll have to live with it'.
I had never experienced anything like the time I spent with the Homeopath. We were there over an hour and he asked all kinds of questions which I now know was a homeopathic case review. He prescribed the remedy Nux Vomica and overnight the impetigo was gone. Never to return. And I thought no more of it.
Fast forward 10 years and I was with the GP again, being prescribed yet more antibiotics for repeated ear eczema & infections and he spoke those same words, '... you'll have to live with it'. But the difference was, he suggested I saw a Homeopath, which I did. I was prescribed the same remedy as in my teens – Nux Vomica (note the name of the condition is different yet the remedy is the same. This is because homeopathic remedies are prescribed for the person first, not just the symptoms). 24 hours later the pain and deafness were gone - which have never returned - and that was the start of a 30 year journey of studying complementary therapies.
I left a stressful but lucrative City job and qualified in Massage (which I'd been having for stress management), and started my new career in the spa of a Caribbean-bound cruise ship, I mean, why wouldn’t you?! On my return, I established a London in-house corporate massage practice and decided to study Homeopathy to fix the underlying health conditions which massage didn't help.
From the first day at Homoeopathy College, I knew I was in the right place. The light went on, and throughout the 3 years I was at college, it felt like I was relearning things I'd somehow forgotten. It was a truly life-changing course and I know I was fortunate to study with the late and visionary Robert Davidson. He showed students how to be come unprejudiced observers, as well as how fear can paralyse people, block perspective and the ability to find solutions. How timely are those words?! And there's nothing as scary as taking your first case, believe me! But I did and I never tire of hearing people’s stories and how they found their way to me. It is a privilege to help empower and enlighten people on their healing journey. The process enables clients join the dots in their medical and life events, which reveals that everything is connected and never 'out of the blue' and, more importantly, they're not a victim.
Some years later, I finished my Degree in Homeopathy, which involved reviewing the research around Homeopathy (oh yes, there's lots of it!), advanced case taking skills and complex case management. I continue with regular CPD to update my skills because the minute you think you've got it, you've lost it! And I'm still learning, most recently Crystal & Chakra Healing which is about to come into it's own. More on that later!
Be assured that when we work together, I bring to you the very best that Homeopathy has to offer, that I have invested 30 years of my life in learning and honing my skills, which enables me to perceive a person's symptoms and potential root causes quickly.
It's time to do it differently.
